 MatthewPaul 2008-02-24 . chapter 2I love the characterization and voice of the narrator. Once he finds another human being, it seems like he almost ignores them, despite his great loneliness and despair. The man even finds food and water for him, and he instead distorts it to him being less refined and likely to steal food from him. It would be interesting to see, down the line, how he deals with the thoughts in the last paragraph of the story. Any more of this going to come to fruition? |
 ninjavsself 2007-11-03 . chapter 1The one thing that struck me about this story is how well you captured the feeling of being isolated. The way in which you would focus on small details just so you can keep from thinking about your approaching doom (something like that anyway). Another thing ... you do know that Charles Dickens isn't American, right? Or is that part of the whole "only two continents" thing?
Overall, this is another story of yours that starts out very promisingly. I'm not really huge into action/adventure/fantasy outside of a few things but if the concept is strong I'll keep coming back. |
